CAG Uncharted 2 Clan. - 1/16/10 Saturday @ 7PST/10EST

Just as a reminder. I'm only hosting the game every 2 weeks, so you guys are gonna have to organize something if you wanna play tomorrow.
 
Since it seems like not to many people are interested since it isn't an official night, I may be on a little later than 10 EST as I have some Christmas shopping to do.
 
I might be on tonight. Though about that nights, I would suggest they be on a weekday nights. CAG nights held during the weekend usually have a poor following as the weeks go on. It seems most CAGs can spare at least an hour on most weekday nights.

Also, I can feel the lag as well. It's certainly not really felt and hidden well, but there is a noticeable delay for hit detection. Especially when you fire a couple shots you are sure kills someone, and they die like half a second after you stop firing.
 
Got my kd over 2.0 in deathmatch today along with my first triple down. I used to use down the irons and fleet foot but I am having more fun with sure shot and keep firing. I play this game more than any other game I have right now, so feel free to add me if anyone wants to play.
I'm also down for some killzone 2, wipeout hd, resistance 2, marvel vs capcom2, or gta 4 if anyone cares.

Lol, it's 'tripled', not 'triple down'. :lol:

I play with rapid hands and fleet foot. Yeah, this game's MP is in my rotation.
 
I'm up for some co-op(either plunder or the 'storyline' mode one)if anyone else is on one of these nights. I truly suck on the competitive mode though and I prefer GTAIV's deathmatch/team deathmatch versus this game's.
 
Yeah, good games, espy. I don't think anyone noticed if you were sucking because we were too busy getting killed by grenades. That is some serious BS. :bomb:

This game still reminds me a lot of MGO. It really shines when you play it stealthily with small teams, but everyone inevitably charges out into the middle of the map, guns blazing. Oh well.
 
You are a good DM player. I usually just play randomly and get crushed when I play MP. The teams on there are very skilled however, if I get my team together my K/D ratio is huge. I haven't played with any other cags but UMX.

This game's mp aspect reminds me a bunch of Warhawk, only it doesn't suck as much.:D
 
Yeah good games guys. First Ive played of competitive since launch weekend.

This game is absolutely nothing like Warhawk Cheapest.
 
Hey Cheapest. I'm down for co-op. I like the story-line co-op and survival myself (I net around $40k on survival and find it to be the most fun).

metaly and option: Plunder is actually my least favorite, which is weird, since it was one of my favorites in MGO (with the frog). This game would be more awesome if you could have one hit melee kills (knife!). When they nerfed the knife in MGO I stopped playing. Oddly, I started using the knife in MGO because I couldn't ever kill anyone with a gun, in U2 MP though I can actually kill people (rarely but it happens).
 
Oh, you're not the only one. I myself hate plunder. I'm more of the co-op survival or deathmatch kinda guy. Also don't mind occasional Gold Rush, though it's hard to find a good team that's willing to lug the treasure instead of racking up points killing.

I as well would be up for some co-op.
 
New updates for Uncharted 2:

quoted from Arne Meyer in the playstation blog.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/12/uncharted-2-among-thieves-title-update-3/

Today, Friday, December 18, 2009, at 10:00 AM PST you will be required to download an update to UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves.

Below is a list of what is different:

-Added Version number to game menu – should display 1.03 after this update
-Added Clan Tags – all players can now add a custom four letter Clan Tag in the Profile --- Menu (square) to display on-screen before their PSN ID
-Load times have been decreased significantly
-Added “Rematch” functionality
-Adjusted some Boosters for balance
-Addressed issue with Player’s Met screen in game menu and XMB displaying incorrectly
-Addressed issue with Double Cash not doubling medal cash rewards

We’ve also made a slew of other changes to improve player experience.

I spoke with our multiplayer lead designer, Justin, to give us the lowdown on what’s so great about a few of these updates. Justin quickly shot me back an e-mail with the following info:

-Clan Tags is an addition we’ve been working for a while on. While it’s not full Clan support, we wanted to be sure that everybody can fly their Clan colors within UNCHARTED 2 multiplayer. Support for this is available to all players from the very beginning and can be edited within the player Profile menu – the same place where you choose your boosters.

-We have significantly decreased load times. You will notice that the game loads into a map much faster after leaving the vote screen. This will help get players into games faster and keep people playing instead of waiting in the menu system.

-We have also added Rematch functionality. At the end of a game, all players will be put back into matchmaking together, allowing you to play the same group of people over again. This decreases wait times, while still allowing people to leave after a match if they so desire. Again, this gets people into games faster and allows more time playing and less time in the menus – all of which is a very, very good thing!


I need to get back into this game. I like the rematch feature.
 
the games do load faster and it takes less time to find people id be interesed to know which boosters they tinkered with and how. hope they add some new weapons/levels in the near future.

finally got my internet back. hope to see you guys on. if we have enough people, can't we do a 5 vs 5 public or ranked? and then keep rematching each other?
 
I want to be, but I'm not sure if I'll be on tonight. If not some of you guys feel free to add me and maybe we can play some other night. I enjoyed playing with people from here last week.
 
Apparently, due to this fuckin' snowstorm tonight I'm going to be home tonight, though I admit that I kinda dislike U2's online cept for the co-op modes.

But if we can get a game going tonight against other CAG's and no one spawn camps the powerful weapons, I'll be down for a game or three.
 
[quote name='espy605']Anyone gonna be on tonight? It's clan night![/QUOTE]


when are you all playing? depending on the time ill jump in for a spell.
 
lokizz we're supposed to play every other Saturday at 7PM PST, so it should be in an hour I think.

Anyone that wants to feel free to add me, PSN is 'knackered'

ok ill add you now then.
 
:whee: Bump For Game Night! (BFGN!) :whee:

I will be hosting the games tonight, so don't forget to add "NoKiLL4You" to your friends list.

[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']But if we can get a game going tonight against other CAG's and no one spawn camps the powerful weapons, I'll be down for a game or three.[/QUOTE]We can setup some games where we won't play with the special weapons.

[quote name='espy605']Also I'm assuming our clan tag is 'CAG' in all caps?[/QUOTE]Correct.
 
I'll probably get on in a bit, since it would appear I have to download a patch to the game since the last time I played.

Hopefully it'll make loading the MP a bit faster, since it's sluggish as hell when I try to get into a game I'm invited to.

And if any of you are up for some GTA IV one of these nights, let me know since I'm playing that fairly often(and ignoring my backlog:roll:). Mostly I'm just messing around in a free mode on there though.

Is there anything like that on U2, where you can just explore a map and mess around with vehicles? I'd probably enjoy that if there is something like that.
 
Alright, I'm on now and Knackered is on, but I don't have NoKill4You on my friends list anymore. I tend to delete people pretty quick anymore.:razz:

And I just figured out how to make a clan tag, but would someone mind inviting, since my connection is craptastic.
 
Now I remember why I didn't like the DM/TDM in this game, there's no f'n mini map to see where everyone is.

And who the hell found a tank in that last game?

That's another reason why I've only played this game's mp very sporadically, is that I get like 90% of my kills in GTA IV from vehicles.

EDIT: As usual, I'm the first one killed. LOL

EDIT 2: OK....what the fuck gives. It seems like since this 1.03 update that my character gets 'stuck' and can't move for 2-5 seconds every so often.
 
Sorry for the double post, but this blows since the 1.03 update. I just got a 'connection error' message just as I was about to leave the game due to being 'stuck' and unable to move.

Tank is a scripted event, you can't actually control it, it just rolls through the stage. A lot of stages have random stuff like that.

If it was actually something you could steal and use during the game, that would be interesting. Now I'm remembering why I quit out of the only other time I played the competitive mode(s).

The total lack of some sort of mini map though is aggravating.:roll:

EDIT: I think that's it for me for Uncharted 2 as far as multiplayer goes. I'll stick to GTA IV for my mp fix.

Thanks for the games tonight though everyone. It was fun when I wasn't running off a cliff or getting killed 5 seconds after I spawned.

yeah that last game was pretty intense. i dont usually play the specialty matches but that was the one time i really enjoyed a plunder match. next time you wont be so lucky lol. wished i could have seen how much money i got for it idnt realize i had 43 kills though
 
[quote name='smiggity']Surprise surprise! IATCG even complains when he PLAYS the games[/QUOTE]It's true though. U2's MP isn't that great.

They shoulda just done a 100% SP game.

What can I say, the lack of a map, the lack of some sort of vehicles in the more open maps and the fact I can't see an enemy coming unless I'm constantly looking around are why I don't play most normal FPS games online if I do play them at all.

thats what makes the game so fun. if you feel that you "need" to see where people are you can try the situational awareness booster but i like the way the game it. its a challenge you have to be aware of where you are at all times and whose arouund you because if you drop your gaurd someone will kill you its fun.


none of the maps are big enough for vehicles but i hope down the road they do come up with areas where you can use vehicles ( or at the very least make the train level a mp level).


as far as seeing people keep your eye out for red or green. i always look for the color first which doesnt work as well if theyre hiding behind something but its how i do it. not to mention theres nothing better than jumping down from something and blasting someone.

In traditional mp type games like the ones we played last night I prefer to be the sniper hitting people from a distance, rather than running around and having to keep an eye out for other players. Even if it had something like the blips system from GTAIV, that'd make it a bit better for me, since at least I'd have a general idea where people are at.:D

If you noticed, last night I was getting a majority of my kills from melee attacking, since I really do suck at shooting unless I'm doing it from a vehicle(ala GTAIV).
